The Legonater Posted February 19, 2014 I know this doesn't really belong here, but am I the only one who really hates the fact that the two characters who shouldn't be in the movies made the cover??? This is far from the only cover - Unexpected Journey had at least three or four different covers, if not more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mahtion Posted February 20, 2014 Exactly, as much as I prefer characters like Thranduil, Bard or Smaug on the cover, this set comes with a legolas poly and coincides with this cover. I wish Lego made a few more exclusives so we have opportunities to collect new characters or variants. Also some new stuff would tie us over until more info gets released.

kevkipo Posted February 20, 2014 What is this? :O my 200th post? Also doesn't anyone else find it weird that we haven't seen any stills for the Hobbit game yet except the 3 we saw? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 20, 2014 Also doesn't anyone else find it weird that we haven't seen any stills for the Hobbit game yet except the 3 we saw? Yeah, I find that weird too What bothers me is the current lack of DOS based screenshots/ scenes, the only one we've seen thus far is the shot of Legolas and Tauriel jumping on the wall Shouldn't they be focussing on Smaug now? Speaking of which, why isn't he featured on any of the Bluray covers? He's only in the title y'know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So much questions Oh and Tauriel en Legless Lego Legolas jumping on a wall was not the only thing, you can also see Dol Guldur really fast :) I hope somewhere in March we get to see a little more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So much questions Oh and Tauriel en Legless Lego Legolas jumping on a wall was not the only thing, you can also see Dol Guldur really fast :) I hope somewhere in March we get to see a little more That scene looks like the shot of Radagast entering Dol Guldur in AUJ. The clip of Legolas and Tauriel is really strange, the wall looks like part of the water gate, but 3x the size. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevkipo Posted February 22, 2014 How is it dead? Only a few people talk on it anymore, it's not really well updated. not a lot of people talk on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leo604 Posted February 22, 2014 Only a few people talk on it anymore, it's not really well updated. not a lot of people talk on it Probably because we haven't actually learned anything significantly new about the game recently to make further posts, and Culture & Multimedia itself is far from dead. Same thing happened with the LOTR Video Game thread: activity skyrocketed once the game came out and people began posting about their progress, getting 100%, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SandMirror38 Posted February 22, 2014 Well it dosn't mean that you talk about it here as this is the inapropriate topic. Discussion of the game and it's details should be discussed THERE and not here, even if it is 'dead'.

The Awesomnator Posted February 23, 2014 Here is a summary of all the info we have so far: Set 1- Dol Guldur scene, $12-15, with Galadrial, the Witch- King, and a 3rd figure (Elrond, Sauron, Saruman) Set 2- Lake Town, $29-39, with Bain, probably a few LT guards, and maybe and Alfrid. Seemingly no Smaug. Set 3- A Bo5A set, $69(?), with Dain, hopefuly Bolg and Azog, and, of course, since TLG loves him so much, there will probably be a Gandalf Set 4- Erebor, $129, probably with some dwarves, Bilbo, and probably a Smaug . If PJ had stuck to the book, there would be no antagonists to put in the set, but we don't know what he did! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To correct all your information set 1 - Galadriël, Witch King, and Elrond set 2 - Bain, Alfrid, 1 LT guard, and Bard (maybe) set 3 - Dain Ironfoot, Bolg, Bear Beorn (maybe), Eagle, Iron Hill dwarf (X2) set 4 - Smaug, Thorin, Bilbo, Dori, Dwalin, Balin, Gloin/Oin, This is all based on information we have collected so far Confirmed = Smaug, Galadriel, Elrond, Bain, Dain, Bolg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Floundie Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) And Andrew from Bzpower has also kindly provided us with exact prices and piece counts. Which gives me a theory on the second biggest set. 79015 Hobbit 5 - 101 pieces. $14.99 (USD) $15.99 (CAD) We know this one is the Dol Guldur set. It will have a small rock formation and Galadriel, Elrond in armor, and glow in the dark Witch King. 79016 Hobbit 6 - 313 pieces. $29.99 (USD) $34.99 (CAD) I think this one is very likely to be the battle pack of the wave. Maybe with Dain, three iron hill dwarves and two orcs. 79017 Hobbit 7 - 471 pieces. $59.99 (USD) $84.99 (CAD) Now here is my theory. 471 pcs is (almost) exactly the piece count of Lake Town Chase. That was $60 CAD. The only thing that could justify a whopping $85 price tag is the inclusion of a molded SMAUG. This is why I am sure the second biggest set will be a portion of Laketown with Smaug, Bain, Alfrid, a few dwarves, and possibly another Bard. It just makes sense. 79018 Hobbit 8 - 858 pieces. $129.99 (USD) $119.99 (CAD) This will be Erebor, or at least the inside. It will have lots of compartments for gold and will include the forges. If we assume Smaug will be included in Lake Town then I think this set will have Thorin, Bilbo, Fili, and Kili in armor, and Bolg, Azog (with a new face print), maybe Thranduil in armor. And probably Gandalf. Confirmed = Smaug, Galadriel, Elrond, Bain, Dain, Bolg I don't believe Bolg was ever confirmed.

kevkipo Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) That wasn't confirmed either. It is confirmed by the people who went to London Toy Fair Not that i don't like your idea's, they sound good. but just leave Bolg, Azog, Fili and Kili out of Erebor and put in Smaug! Then you wont hear me :) Edited February 23, 2014 by kevkipo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
